Any experience or comment about those "rebuilted" amps?

Learn something new every day first I have heard of them. They may be a thing of the past now.

Yeah I read the article. There are just a couple of them for sale on the net and the web site is not working.
Would like to know whats doing now the guy from Hovercraft.

Demos are mostly doomy tones so I dont have a complete idea of their real character anyway I read posts from owners Who say its quite versatile amp.

Anyway I would like to try one for sure!

If someone has some info please let me know.

from what i've heard, they are built nicely and do the doom/sludge thing very well.
the only complaint i've heard is that they can be noisy - the clip seems to attest to that

I watched a few demos his overdrive channel is terrible sounds like AC voltage leaking on the DC preamp controls.

Some year I will finish Steel String Stringer #07 150 watt I like clean amps.
